So he was not a "toddler", because he was incapable of toddling. Words mean things.

He was toddler age. With Down's development is quite delayed (with a low ceiling) in the best circumstances. That poor child was not in the best circumstances.

Per the article he was incapable of toddling.

He was toddler age.

He was two years old. That's an accurate, factually correct statement.

A "toddler" is "one who toddles", which this unfortunate child was unable to do. Words mean things. Reporters are idiots. I'm past tired of sloppy writing in Big Media.

To be clear: I'm not insulting the child; I'm impugning the reporter.
